Shiavault - a Vault of Shia Islamic Books The Role of Ideology in Constructing the Human Being Chapter Two : the Social and Educational Bulding The Islamic ideology had played a big role on the level of the social and educational building, one can state it in the following points: Firstly: Agitating the social feeling: Man before Islam was concentrating upon himself in his social behavior, he sets up in his communications with others through the view point of his desires and interests, driven far away with his selfishness.

He had fallen down in his social behavior to the degree of burying his newborn gird alive for fear from poverty and starvation.

This matter required the divine intervention to rescue the innocent souls from this ugly social habit, Allah (be exalted) says: “Don’t kill your children for fear of poverty”[^1] The thing which draws one’s attention mostly is that pre-Islamic man who was moving around himself and his interests had become after his interaction with the elixir of belief ready to sacrifice himself and every precious thing he has for the sake of his religion and society, the horizons of change in his spirit had reached the level at which he prefers the interests of his society to his own interests.

The level of altruism which the “Ansaar” (proponants) showed to the “Muhajireen” (emigrants) is very clear to every one, as they shared them with every thing they possessed even with their homes and wares, this level of alturism had not been restricted to some individuals, rather it represented a social phenomenon that the history of humanity had not witnessed its like at all.
